Troop Tweak: Witches

You all know those little tombstones left by killed troops. Maybe they should be marked with certain icons so we know what troop died. For example, an archer would have an arrow on her grave, a barbarian would have a sword, a hog rider would have a hammer, a valkyrie would have a dual axe, etc.

Now in order to promote more game play, witches should be allowed to raise "THE DEAD." The witch should have like a four tile radius, and if a few graves are in that radius, she would raise them. To prevent raising a too powerful of a troop, each troop would have different health and attack stats than when they were alive. These troops would also be skeletons. For example, if a dragon was raised, you wouldn't see a dragon, you'd see the skeleton of a dragon.
Tier 1 & 2 Troops: 1/2 of actual stats.
Tier 3 Troops: 1/4 of actual stats.

I think dark troops should be divided in tiers as well.

DE Tier 1 Troops: 1/4 of actual stats. (Minions, Hog Riders, Valkyries)
DE Tier 2 & 3 Troops: 1/8 of actual stats. (Golems, Witches, Lava Hounds, Level 7 DE Troop) (Level 8,9,10 DE Troop)

Watch the replays or just look at them to know the troops killed.

I like the idea about witches raising dead but raising powerful troops with different stats seems too op. I'd say each time she summons her undead if there is an available grave marker nearby she would raise up to one additional Skelton. Wouldn't change much but would make her a little more fun. Imagine a witch and valk raising hell together on d.

Great idea, but is there a limit in amount of troops she can raise back? Cause if there was 20 graves in her 4 tile radius(should be 3 cause 4 is too much) which I doubt, wouldn't that be to much? I'd prefer a 10 at max plus skeles she spawns. For troops that are 11+ army space, you can only summon 1. I feel that a cool down is needed probably once every 45 seconds or so? Love this idea, just needs some tweaks as I've mentioned

I'm actually cutting down on the troops' stats because I did think it would be too OP. You see the fractions are meant to be the percentage of how much of the actual life they have. So tier 1 troops only have 50% of the actual life of the troops. Sorry if I caused any confusion.

Well the tile range was just a rough estimate. Maybe three would be about right, and of course there would be a max. Perhaps about two tombstones per second. Maybe so it isn't so OP, if a dead troop is raised, it would take the place of a skeleton, so at all times she is limited to six troops.

Make it simple. Rather than raising the dead just like that, have her have like a healing effect on a tombstone. Maybe 3 hits is enough to then revive it. This way she can only do it 1 tomb at a time. And the troop that has been revived cannot be revived anymore.
